All grinding methods create heat. If the blade gets so hot that the metal changes color, you have damaged the blade. The heaviest grinding is done with the course belt. If this belt is worn, you will need to apply more pressure and will create more heat. The course belt is the belt you will need to replace most often. In some severe cases, you might even need to use an 80 grit ceramic belt. An 80 grit belt is used for repairing broken blade tips, or when making custom knives to get the first bevel correct. This belt removes metal much faster, and should be used with caution to prevent removing too much blade material.
